While[edit]

While I love DarkMatter's videos, currently, the List of YouTubers covers him pretty well. ТyTalk. 18:19, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

I agree. Delete this mofo. P-Foster (talk) 18:22, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
Support, mostly as this article does nothing. ThunderkatzHo! 18:47, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
That's three. Bye bye. ТyTalk. 18:47, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Liberapedia has a good article about DarkMatter2525. The RationalWiki team can usually manage better articles than Liberapedia. Are you sure you were right to delete this? Proxima Centauri (talk) 17:06, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

No one cares about Liberapedia Prox. Тytalk 17:07, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Skepnav[edit]

{{internet}} is really only useful for Internet-only stuff without any focus on an issue; {{skepnav}} better describes what he does. 32℉uzzy; 0℃atPotato (talk/stalk) 15:54, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Criticism[edit]

Here, he fails to note the (admittedly often blurry) difference between Islamism and Islam. Where? I don't see it.--31.16.27.86 (talk) 21:50, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Not as bad as fallacy[edit]

"DarkMatter2525 has recently used not as bad as arguments to state that the world is getting better, not worse, that activism is counterproductive because it consists only of complaining, and people don't know how good they have it, relying heavily on first world problems to make his point."

The video used to back up this quote is talking about the importance of gratitude. It does not say claim in any way that "some causes are more important than others" (i.e. not as bad fallacy).

In fact, Darkmatter made an ENTIRE video criticizing the "not as bad as" fallacy on his second channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CvnYrCir5Y

Final animation[edit]

The "final animation" section should be removed because it is too dated and didn't happen. Obviously, Darkmatter2525 subsequently decided to continue making videos on Youtube. At the time Youtubers were panicking about some new Youtube policies that might have made it difficult to continue making content.
